Review 3：Its a very useless place to stay. Not friendly staff, room is too small. Not enough space for a family. Very bad bathroom . No soap.. just a handwash for everything. I dont recommend it to any one. Totally dissapointing. Breakfirs is like a ration in the prision
Review 4：Nothing to like
Review 5：The room was spacious and clean and comfortable and the details (such as no coffee) were unimportant considering the very good value for money that the hotel is. .
Review 6：Bed has dust mite, air conditioner is not cold at all. Water pressurefrom the heather is low.The room is not clean, got hair on the floorleft from the previous customer. Not a comfort stay at all. Will notcome back to stay again.

Review 12：Location & staffs are friendly.
Review 13：WiFi only at lobby area is really inconvenience for us who come with family
Review 14：Your receptionist nadirah is really a asset for the property. She really calm and professional with genuine smile all time
Review 15：It would be good to have a street view photo of the hotel from the main road as the hotel is cosily tucked away behind a KFC/7-11, took us 2 buses and cab to locate it at first. Poor or zilch wifi access in the rooms. Had to go to the staircase or lobby/cafeteria to access.
Review 16：The hotel was situated just where I wanted, near the beach and night market, and accessible to many touristy areas via public bus, 101/102. Loved the cleanliness and staff's welcoming and chill behaviour. The price was just right for a short yet comfortablr stay. Best part, didnt spot any pests at all until we checked out and spotted a lizard bidding us goodbye at the lift.

Review 94：Near to Batu Ferringhi beach and the night bazaar. Simple but nice breakfast. Friendly staff.
Review 95：Friendly staff, cheap price, comfort queen size bed, air conditioning room, clean bathroom with heater and a cctv-based car park.what can i ask more from it? Seriously it worth my every penny!
Review 96：Hotel room still using traditional key lock. Maybe have safety concern some purpose former stay to duplicate key for burglar purpose. rifd card access door better security.
Review 97：Staff is friendly. The room is clean n comfort. Value for money as a budget hotel
Review 98：- the bed are not comfort/thin/very cheap bed. Room to small. The location far from main road. Not value for monkey at all. Will never recommend to any one.
Review 99：Clean
Review 100：Almost willfully basic. They have a roof terrace on the 3rd floor which would be a great place to relax - but there is nothing at all to sit on. A few plastic chairs would make a big difference. Rooms also could do with some more storage
Review 101：Very very clean. Fresh towels & linen each day. Shower was basic, but worked better than the previous (5 star) hotel we stayed at.
Review 102：There should be: (1) a kettle in room for customer's comfort when they need to make hot drinks; (2) wifi in the rooms! In this era, if guest houses at <RM100 can provide high-speed wifi all-area coverage why can't a new modern hotel as such do it? A new budget hotel a few doors away does offer that! (3) better quality and portion of breakfast. Personally I think for an Asian, that portion is probably more for kids...
Review 103：The 'hotel car' service chargeable at a reasonable rate; staff are friendly and available most time at the counter. Staff are helpful too and speak good English. Location is also quiet but strategic to many eating places, taxi station, mini mart and beach.
Review 104：The air-con was not functioning so the room was warm and stuffy. My family spent a sleepless night. Made a complaint and waited for the technician who did not turn up. My daughter misplaced the breakfast vouchers (3) and we were denied breakfast. Even official documents like our Mykad can be replaced, after all 3 miserable vouchers and so much of fuss by the receptionist.
Review 105：It's reasonably cheap taking into consideration that it was the super peak season. Good as a place to put up a night so that we needn't rush home after a long day.
Review 106：This hotel is far from the ferry and Georgetown, but that's ok if you're looking for a little more piece and quiet. WiFi is not in your room which is a bummer.
Review 107：This was a budget friendly hotel, with a good location to the beach. There is good food within walking distance and the national park and spice garden is a short bus ride. Room was clean and good size. Hot water and AC.
Review 108：Rooms small, not much space if you are staying for a long time. Day staff are abit moody. If it had not been for our room being on the first floor we would have not had wifi in the rooms. The walls are so so thin you can hear everything that is going on in the hotel!
Review 109：Wifi was only meant to be available in the lobby, but due to the location of our room we were able to get wifi in our rooms. Beds changed and fresh towls every day. Evening staff very friendly!
Review 110：the facilities of the room is included the hair dryer, but when we reach there isn't provided it. It is quite disappointed.
Review 111：great service of staff who is the Indian guy, also willing to giving the information of the attraction..
Review 112：the tv is not in good condition. Noisy because of upgrading works.
Review 113：the room is clean, the bathroom is average, got choices to choose either aircond or fan depends of the weather. The aircond is cold and also the fan speed in great.
Review 114：EQ staff which is at reception are not very friendly. During my check in I was deal with one woman indian staff and I feel like she's very unfriendly even to smile at me.
Review 115：The room very comfortable, clean and nice to be there.
Review 116：One indian man who was unfriendly , stern looking when i went to retrieve myroom key.Could do better with a smile or a hello. A boiling kettle would have helped .
Review 117：Room was tidy and clean and one young friendly pleasant chinese man at the counter who was polite and helpful.
Review 118：- Friendly but not helpful staff - Very dirty room, hair everywhere, even after asking to clean again on day of arrival, no cleaning happened - Bathroom stinks - You can hear all other guests and what they do in their bathroom - Loud construction work from 9am to 4pm
Review 119：Wifi definitely only reliable in reception area or near the lift, didn't work in our room....but it did say it was only available in public areas, so can't complain really :)
Review 120：The location was good for wandering around the town, and it's really close to the markets that set up each evening. Great for the bus stop too! Nice place, and the staff were pretty helpful.
Review 121：Please change the mattress because its thin and I felt uncomfortable to sleep because of the spring. I can feel it and its hurt. And as time goes by, maybe you could consider to put an electric kettle and a mini fridge. That could be better.
Review 122：Everything! From the location that near to the food stalls, night market, ATM Machines, petrol station, Hard Rock Penang, etc. The cleanliness and friendly staffs and a good hotel for small budget.
Review 123：There was a stain on the bed sheet in the room number EQ225 so i hope your staffs can do something about it. The scenery also not so good because our room is facing the cemetery. And there was no big mirror for us.
Review 124：The room was comfortable.
Review 125：Wifi only in lobby,all rooms are acustic, old tv, beds were not good.This hotel is just okey for few days.
Review 126：There was window in room. Good location, clean.
